BREAKING: Former Biden-era VA official John H. Windom—tasked with overseeing the massive Electronic Health Record Modernization project—has been federally indicted for concealing thousands in cash, casino chips, Louis Vuitton gift cards, and other lavish gifts from contractors.
While leading the effort, Windom helped award a $10 BILLION contract to Cerner (later bought by Oracle Health). He allegedly pushed the company on 'diversity and inclusion,' leading to a $1.7M DEI-related subcontract for his circle—while raking in personal perks from a 'Power Group' of favored vendors.
The result? A disastrously flawed system linked to over 4,000 cases of harm to veterans—including at least 4 deaths from scheduling errors, lost orders, and catastrophic failures. Rollout stalled after safety nightmares.
This is what happens when ethics take a backseat and ideology (DEI) mixes with billion-dollar contracts. Veterans deserved better. Accountability now.
